An LPG tank can potentially be installed in a garden, but this will depend on the size and layout of your property, the available space, and whether a suitable location can be found that complies with bulk LPG storage tank regulations. There must also be adequate access for LPG deliveries, inspections and ongoing maintenance.

Above-ground tanks need to be installed on a suitable, level concrete base and must be positioned at a safe distance from buildings, boundaries, sources of ignition and other potential hazards. The exact location will be determined as part of a site assessment to ensure compliance with all relevant safety requirements.

If you’re considering an underground tank, additional factors will need to be assessed, including ground conditions, drainage, underground services and excavation requirements. Underground tanks typically require more extensive groundwork and installation work than above-ground tanks.
